Les quatre parties de Simple Symphony de Benjamin Britten, arrangé pour quatuor à cordes. / Quatuor A Cordes

Depuis quelques années, les Français ont découvert, à l'Opéra de Paris, au festival d'Aix-en-Provence et ailleurs, quelques pages majeures du compositeur anglais Benjamin Britten : ses opéras Peter Grimes, Billy Budd, Curlew River (La Rivière aux Courlis), The Turn of the Screw (Le Tour d'écrou), ou A Midsummer Night's Dream (Le Songe d'une nuit d'été), mais un très grand nombre d'?uvres restent encore à nous être révélées. Grâce à l'avantage de sa double appartenance française et anglaise, Mildred Clary fait revivre la personnalité complexe de ce compositeur dans un contexte biographique. Son enfance (sur une côte désolée du Sussex), son adolescence, à la fois fragile et trouble, sa difficulté à assumer une certaine marginalité, ses rencontres enrichissantes, sa recherche d'un langage musical qui transcende celui, trop nationaliste, de ses contemporains, sont ainsi évoquées. Pour faire comprendre et partager le parcours et l'?uvre de cet homme, elle ne s'appuie que sur des documents authentiques : interviews, correspondance, archives. Elle exploite notamment les informations considérables qu'elle a recueillies en 1986, lorsqu'elle réalisa, à Aldeburgh - lieu même où vécut Brittern et qui porte le nom du célèbre festival qu'il y fonda -, les quinze heures d'émission qu'elle lui a consacrées.
